After weeks of celebrity tryouts, leaks and heated speculation by game show fans, current executive producer Mike Richards and actor Mayim Bialik have been named permanent co-hosts of Jeopardy!, marking the first time two people will host one of television's most popular game shows.
Richards will host the daily syndicated program, while Bialik hosts the primetime series and new spinoffs. The announcement was first reported by The Daily Beast.
Widely circulated reports that Richard was first in line for the job provoked immediate backlash online. Critics described the choice as unadventurous and pointed to a lawsuit alleging toxic behavior in a previous job. Infuriated fans of LeVar Burton, the beloved television icon known for his work on shows ranging from Roots to Reading Rainbow to Star Trek: The Next Generation were also quick to express displeasure.

Congrats to Mike Richards. He knew Alex for years and years. He handled the job like Alex did, in a mature and professional way.
That Bialik broad carried on like a clown. Laughing and trying to be funny. I predict she will not last 6 months on Prime time.

Mike Rowe....
They only hired her because she is pretty.
But-her-Face!
Is she?
Dammit. I hate snorting diet Coke on my keyboard. Don't do that.
Bialik is an anti-gun Trump hating nutcase.
She is a major Trump hater and a raging shitlib.
Well she met the requirements for the job then...
She used to be, for a brief time post-Blossom.
Digital polishing does wondrous things....
“They only hired her because she is pretty.”
Back away from the drugs sir. You are mentally fried and may not survive another hit.
Series, her looks peaked on that show she was on as a young teen.
She ain’t dumb. She’s a Jewish atheist, but not dumb.
You know.....I didn’t think the /s would be necessary.
Looks like I was very wrong.
Exactly.
This is very good news.
He was good at this job
He was the only non leftist It was horrible
Maybe ‘pretty’ from the tips of her toes to that clipped hair on her chinny chin chin.
Buzzy was my choice since he kept the game moving . It seemed like everyone else always had pauses between the contestants getting an answer and the host moving on to the next question. It’s a minor thing but the pauses always got on my nerve.
Blossom laughed too much.
Bialik is the sound made while dry heaving after a night of heavy drinking.
An over the hill Blossom is a terrible choice. But it angers the Marxist BlMers who wanted Burton.
